HOW TO SCAN SLIDES
STEP 1 – Acquire Driver
ENGLISH
(For MAC User)
Open Macintosh Hard drive – Applications –CyberView
STEP 2 – Select Film Type
Select the film type to be scanned - Positive, Negative or B&W (Black and White).
ENGLISH
(For PC User)
Open CyberView from Start – All Programs –CyberView
a. Resolution
The default scanning resolution is 1000dpi, additional resolution options
are listed below.
Notice: Higher scanning resolutions result in greater scanning time and hardisk
space requirements.
b. Color Depth
Choose between 8 and 16bit. A higher color depth setting will result in
a larger range of colors in the final scanned image.
The Film Scanner color depth is 48 bit true color. The scanning software has the
capability of selecting 8 bit color mode or 16 bit color mode when scanning,
This will produce 24 or 48 bit color images, 8 bits or 16 bits per Red, Green and
Blue color channels.
Example:
8 bit mode = 8 Red, 8 Green, and 8 Blue for a total of 24 bit color
16 bit mode = 16 Red, 16 Green, and 16 Blue for a total of 48 bit color
NOTE: Make sure there is enough space available
on the computer when changing the Scanning
Resolution. A high scanning resolution results in
large files that may prove difficult to save.
STEP 3 – Optional Prescan
Select the “Prescan Current Frame“ to prescan the slide currently loaded into
the scanner or “Prescan...“ to prescan slide or slides at specific positions in the
magazine.
